Check your transmit frequency to make sure it is within the proper range. Also verify proper battery voltage, it will typically transmit with low voltage.
There are several reasons you may not be able to transmit with the FTM-3100R:
1) Your antenna is not matched to the frequency of use and presents a high SWR. The 3100 protects itself from high SWR by refusing to transmit
2) You have somehow enabled the busy-channel-lockout feature in the setup menu, and you are operating with an open squelch
3) Your DC power supply voltage is too low to support transmit current
4) You are transmitting with too low a power setting and the receiver cannot hear you
5) You are attempting to transmit to a repeater that uses a CTCSS squelch tone, and you do not have the proper squelch tone configured
Both of the LEDs to the left of the display should turn red to indicate you are transmitting. If both LEDs turn red, your problem is likely either #4 or #5.
this is strange as most times if a proper transmit key is depressed , then the radio switches from receive to transmit , the mfg know this would cause some great squeal from receiver /transmitting so close to a receiver so the part that is the receiver is muted to keep this from happening , id say there is some fault in the part that does this muting of receiver
First, to transmit to your machine using a USB to serial converter, it should have a FTDI chip. Second, you should be transmitting on Com 1 or 2 -- preferably Com1. You can change the port it transmits on in the Device Manager in computer properties on your computer. Third, check on your machine which port it's looking for -- they must match.
? I assume you are asking if you need an ariel antenna for this radio in order to receive and transmit? if that is the case then yes you do, Any radio requires a matched antenna in order to transmit, if you were to transmit without an antenna, most of the RF energy will transfer back into the radio and over heat "burn out" the output transistors. always make sure to have a proper antenna connected before transmitting on any radio.
The FT-1802 is a 50 watt 2 meter FM transceiver. It can transmit anywhere between 144 - 148 Mhz (the FM portion) of the 2 meter ham band. It can receive anywhere between 136 - 174 Mhz without any modifications. There is a modification to enable transmit "out of band" below:
There are few details about the results of this mod - typically these provide for transmitting on frequencies outside (above, below or both) of the 2 meter ham band. Transmitting outside of the ham band without a proper license for the frequencies in the U.S. is a violation of FCC rules.
im sorry to say the problem you have is in the transmition a new transmition thrust bearing and seal kit would be needed to repair this properly parts alone you are looking at 250 - 300 dollars
The ADF rollers may be dirty or may even be damaged. To determine this, 1. Open the transmit door. 2. take a look at the condition and placement of rollers and sensor actuators.3. Using a lintless rag and 99% Isoprpynol, clean the rollers thoroughly. 4. Clean the scanner glass and also the white strip on the transmit door opposite the glass. 5. Do not forget to examine the final roller (paper out roller) This may be damaged or the gear or even the plastic clips that hold this down may be broken. finally make sure that the transmit door can be snapped shut properly.
